Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
-
Add the egg, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
-
Stir in the boiling water to the batter. The batter will be thin, but that's okay.
-
Pour the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
-
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, frost them with chocolate frosting.
-
Cut the black licorice laces into 2-inch pieces. Insert 8 pieces into each cupcake to create spider legs.
-
Place two candy eyes on each cupcake to complete the spider look.
-
Let the frosting set for 10 minutes before serving.
